The Next Shift Podcast
This is a podcast dedicated to serving current and former law enforcement, by sharing the stories of my own personal transition out of law enforcement, lessons learned through the transition and since, as well as the stories of officers who’ve also transitioned out, their significant others to gain that perspective, and resources for embracing their Next Shift.
It is MY mission to help YOU remember who you are/were behind the badge by helping you REdiscover your identity, REdefine your purpose, and REignite your passions so that you can create the life you WANT to live.
The Next Shift Podcast
An unexpected ending: Lessons learned from an Air Marshal
This week's episode is a chat with John Benjamin Jones. John is a retired Senior Air Marshal and former US Navy combat veteran...as well as the author of A Higher Calling: A biblical guide for first responders, military, and veterans and co-author of the undergraduate textbook, The Fundamentals of Security Management: A Common Sense Approach.
John spent almost 30 years in public service and now uses his experiences to be an advocate for first responders and veterans.
John endured a lengthly medical retirement process after he was diagnosed with a brain bleed that would not allow him to continue flying. Once his retirement process was complete, John went into the financial industry as a financial services rep and as of the date of this recording, was working on obtaining his RICP certification, which would allow him to also sell insurance.
Make sure you connect with John on LinkedIn and check out his website, here.
